2-3 Type SHD-GC Mining Industrial Cable 2001-5000v

Allowable Ampacity For 2-3 Type SHD-GC Mining Industrial Cable 2000-500V: 159 Amps

Applications:

Type SHD-GC electrical cables are designed for mobile or stationary mining equipment, continuous mining machines or longwall loading machines, blast hole drillers, and heavy-duty trailing cables where maximum protection is required. They are suitable for medium and high voltage use on shovels, draglines, dredges, and cranes. This electrical cable is also suitable for power distribution in mines where more flexibility is desired. American Mustang Type SHD-GC Cable can also be used where a ground check conductor is required for fail-safe monitoring. The cable is available in 2000V and 5000V variations. The temperature range is  –50° C to 90° C.

Also Known As:

2-3 Type SHD-GC Power Cable, 2-3 Type SHD-GC Cable, 2-3 SHD-GC Type Mining Power Feeder Cable, 2-3 American Mustang Type SHD-GC Cable, 2-3 Type SHD-GC Portable Power Cable, 2-3 SHD-GC.

Standards:

• ASTM B-33 and B-172
• MSHA P-136
• UL
• CSA
• ICEA S-75-381/ NEMA WC-58

Construction:

Conductor:

Soft drawn annealed, flexible rope lay, tinned copper conductors, wrapped with a semi-conductive tape (5-25 kV). 

Insulation/Separator/Tape:

 EPR, covered by a nylon semi-conductive tape (5-25 kV) with a tinned copper braided insulation shield, 85% minimum coverage. A Mylar separator is used between the phase conductor and insulation. SBR tape separates the copper ground wires and one HD EPR coated ground check. The outer jacket provides a moderate fill of the cable assembly (nylon core rubber fillers applied as needed for a balanced round cross-section). The SBR tape is applied over the entire cabled assembly aiding core stability and jacket strip ability. 

Jacket:

The outer jacket is a black, flame-resistant, heavy-duty single-pass CPE with excellent resistance to UV, oil, water, solvents, corrosives, cuts, tears, and abrasion.
